Florida was already attracting a lot of national attention as passage of its six-week abortion ban loomed. Then, state Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried was removed from an abortion rights protest near the state capitol in Tallahassee earlier this month, and photos and videos of her in handcuffs plastered social media.
Her black t-shirt read, “JUST F**k!ng VOTE.” In videos of the arrest, you can hear abortion rights protesters shouting “Shame!” over and over.
